HAMILTON, Bermuda--Theatre fans will be able to cruise to Bermuda next autumn with a glittering cast of Broadway stars as part of a theatre-themed cruise on the Norwegian Pearl. The inaugural Broadway Cruise, set to sail from New York next October, will feature performances by Allan Cumming and fellow Tony Award-winner Laura Benanti. Cumming, who won a Tony for “Cabaret”, has appeared in a variety of stage and screen productions including the James Bond blockbuster “Goldeneye” and the hit television show “The Good Wife”. Benanti won a Tony for her role in “Gypsy”. They will be joined by Broadway talent from shows including “Cabaret”, “My Fair Lady”, “School of Rock”, “Porgy and Bess” and “Mean Girls”. The cruise will also include talks from make-up artists and costume designers, as well as choreographers. Cumming said: “It’s going to be a super-duper Broadway extravaganza. “I’m going to be performing twice on the main deck. I’m really, really looking forward to it.” Prices for the Broadway Cruise, which will run from October 10 to 14, start at US $995 per person.
